NEW  Running the Meridian Project Portal Publishing Service

The Meridian Project Portal Publishing Service can run either automatically as a service or from a command line for troubleshooting purposes. When the Meridian Project Portal Publishing Service is installed by the Publisher setup program as described in NEW Installing components on a Meridian Project Portal server, it is installed as a service. You can control the service using the Services node in Server Manager like any other service.

Tip    When the Meridian Project Portal Publishing Service is run as a service but it is not being used, the service should be cleared to prevent unnecessary communications with the Publisher database and entries in the BlueCielo Publisher event log of the computer.

To run the service from a command line:

1. From the Windows Start menu, open a Command Prompt window.
2. Change the current directory to the location of KronodocService.exe. By default, it is located in the folder C:\Program Files\BlueCieloPublisher.
3. Run KronodocService.exe. The service begins to monitor the folders specified in the file KronodocService.exe.config as described in NEW Configuring the Meridian Project Portal Publishing Service. When changed files are detected in the monitored folders, they are registered for publishing. The output of each step of this process will appear in the Command Prompt window.
4. To stop the service in the Command Prompt window, press any key.

Note    Any errors that occur during processing can be viewed in the BlueCielo Publisher event log of the computer.
